KnarlyCarl Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Few things I've gotten over the last couple weeks. Today, a couple rotary hammer bits came. 2 of those 3 tools we know are amazing performers, but that nailer has people all over the board on results, I just hope it really does the job you expect it to, have you used it yet and how did it go?

Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk I just watched some morons review of the Milwaukee vs. Ryobi in the Brad nailer category. Their was a follow up review from another Youtuber that appeared to be in response to the first morons review. The first reviewer ended up bashing the Milwaukee but the test given was pretty unrealistic (bump firing repeatedly) and the overload protection had activated resulting in the reviewer not being able to complete the test in the bump fire mode. The other nailer, a Ryobi, did the job and did it quite well. I used to have the Ryobi and sold it as the firing striker started to stick. It is a great gun but doesn't offer protection for the motor or battery from overdriving which naturally will result in excessive wear and tear on the machine. The test showed the Milwaukee didn't complete driving the nail in a few cases. But....the Milwaukee, like the Dewalt, has built in protection to keep that machine functional. The Ryobi didn't. My Ryobi eventually started to show signs of wear when that striker started to fail. I would have to manually push the striker back in place to complete the job. I started using nail gun lubricant in the mechanism and this seemed to help. I had bought the Ryobi reconditioned from CPO three years ago and it served me very well for those three years till the issue popped up. I used my bradder a lot but never in bump mode (it's a Brad nailer....not a roofing or framing nailer.....and truthfully I hardly use my DCN692 in bump mode....brads put in light duty fasteners more in line with cabinetry and furniture building). Everyone knows I'm not a big fan of the red team and they lead the pack in returns for me after failures but....I don't think this was a fair test. Imagine putting a top of the line circular saw with built in protection against a saw without. Then running tens to hundreds of board feet of wood and having the brushless, protected saw stop working while your older saw kept going. Does this make it better? Maybe if time and money isn't an issue.....(you know, burning out the battery pack and motor and needing to buy a new saw). I will say what I saw between these reviews was the fact that the Milwaukee Brad had a harder time doing angle strikes than the Ryobi and the light in the Milwaukee isn't quite as useful. All in all the two reviews came to different conclusions in quality and run time. Both agreed, in the Brad nailers case, that the line of site wasn't the best and the lights....but, my Ryobi took a while for me to figure out where each nail would go. My new DCN660 will too. Also, following up with the comments made by viewers was interesting too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnarlyCarl Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Yes I believe I know which two videos you refer to and I basically disregard the formers videos because rarely does he give the tools a real world test, it's pathetic and I've taken anything he says with no seriousness, especially after he proved he had no idea what he was talking about regarding new 28v Milwaukee haha that was a real foot in the mouth Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped watching one of these videos in frustration especially with some comments but the said reviewer, you make a very great point, even my 15g, my most used air nailer very self only will I bump fire, no real need.

kruton Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 I picked up that 12v Milwaukee combo too. Thinking about giving it to my old man for father's day. I was debating grabbing the new Makita 12v kit, but since dad is already invested in Milwaukee for all of his 18v I figured he could keep it in the family!
